Telltale signs ZARA’S LITTLE SECRET

-

Three months after tragically miscarryin­g her second child, it seems that Zara Tindall may have something to celebrate again.

The 35-year-old equestrian star and her husband Mike, 38, were devastated when they lost their baby just before Christmas. But they made no secret of the fact they would try to conceive a sibling for three-year-old Mia again, and our royal insider says Zara has been dropping hints that she might already be expecting.

“Zara poured her grief into focusing on falling pregnant as soon as possible,” says the source. “And it seems that her dream may have come true because she’s been giving lots of little hints that she’s in the early stages of pregnancy.”

Zara reportedly also complained of feeling “off” at Mike’s rugby match near

theirhi Gloucester­shire Glhi hhome last weekend, where she was seen giving her heavilyy pregnant pal Amy Williams a huge hug.

“Zara complained of feeling sick and then refused champagne afterwards when she was offered a glass – despite it being her favourite tipple and something she always joked was one of her favourite parts of the match!”

The source adds, “The fact she looked so happy and comfortabl­e around Amy speaks volumes. In the aftermath of losing her baby, she really struggled with being around any of her pregnant pals and she did everything she could to avoid them.”

Zara and Mike have been married since 2011 and announced their happy news at the end of November 2016, with their spokespers­on saying the couple were “very, very happy”” about becomingi parents for the second time and were looking forward to 2017.

Mia’s baby brother or sister would have been a second cousin to Prince George, three, and 22-month-old Princess Charlotte, who call their great-grandmothe­r, the Queen, “Gan Gan”. Zara is also one of George’s godmothers. As earlier reported in

Woman’sDay, the Duchess of Cambridge has been a huge support to Zara in the wake of her miscarriag­e when she was almost five months pregnant. Says a source, “Zara says she couldn’t have got through this without Kate. Despite her busy life, she made time for daily phone calls and surprise visits to try to keep her spirits up. It made an enormous difference.”
